I’ll keep it short and simple..
Location: Dana Point
Gear: Seeker 30-60lb heavy, Avet JX 2 speed
Line: 65lb pp, 30lb fc leader
Bait: Mackerel
Fish: Striped Marlin
Estimated weight: 200-300lbs…. maybe larger.
Result: broke off!!!!!
Fought it for nearly 2 hours, put on a show that had the Sum Fun party boat and 2 other yachts stopped in its tracks. Fish was huge and the girth was massive!! Had it to my kayak 3 times and it dwarfed my Revo by at least 3 feet. By the time King Saba finally caught up to me for the assist, the fish had stopped jumping. I was determined to land this fish even if it meant being towed out to Catalina.
Heartbreak in Dana....
Up next.... Gonzaga!
oh yeah, and definitely need to get on the Go-Pro program
